Firebase reporting GoogleTV for some iOS users

Question

We are seeing a large percentage of our analytics report Google TV in our iOS application. Since we in no way support Google TV, this has to be a error.

We have followed the firebase install, and never saw a place to force the model, does anyone know if there is somewhere we should be setting the model?

The only thing I thing might be is the Xcode simulator, curious if others are seeing this.

Thanks!

Yes, I'm seeing the same when using Xcode 8.2 and iPhone Simulator. Oddly, Firebase is reporting the OS correctly (10.2) – Featurelength

Same issue is happing with the C++ SDK (2.1.3) of Firebase. iPhone Simulator is reporting GoogleTV and app_platform in big query is showing iOS. – Roslyn

Even worse, what is "Other". So basically Firebase is accurate less than 20% of the time on something that should be exact. Still seeing this. – Keystroke

Even I' m getting this, simulator is showing as Google TV – Salientian

I think FIRDebugEnabled or FIRAnalyticsDebugEnabled should be enabled in the arguments when you're using a simulator.
